Default smoked cab and marker lights

ok so i bought some night shade smoking paint and want to smoke my cab and marker lights, but i have a few questions. Do i have to sand the lights before applying the paint? Will the lights look purple once its done? and how in the world do you get the center cab lights off(3 small ones in between the corner ones)?
Thanks...

I cannot say what they will look like
since I bought the Recon dark smoked
ones and installed them.

The middle light covers twist off.

BTW if you mess up the original
lights I do have a set of OEM
ones for sale. LOL

Hey Matt, i did both my Hummers, you should sand them for sure with a 800 grain "wet" sand paper, trust me, it makes a difference, let me know if you need any help, i'm out this weekend but I'm back on Monday.
